Taoyuan, Taiwan, [email protected] [email protected] Pimonwan Mahujchariyawong Payel Roy Kasikorn Research Center, JIS College of Engineering, Bangkok, Thailand. West Bengal, India. [email protected] [email protected] Abstract: Tea is a popular beverage and has been medically used in the world. In geography, it is related to climate, soil type, altitude, and others. From an economic point of view, it is an important agricultural product in some areas. As it grows in mountainous districts, it is often cultivated by minority peoples or ethnic groups living in such districts. As it is favored as a drink, it is deeply related to the various aspects of lifestyle and culture including art in some countries. Integrating these various aspects of tea, this paper proposes its potential contribution to educational policies for fostering the local intelligent and creative faculties of the future development of locals.

Nitrogen is the most important nutrient for increasing quality of tea leaves. Therefore, large amounts of nitrogen fertilizer are increasingly applied by tea farmers. Appropriate application of nitrogen fertilizer aroused people’s concern. This research of physiological response to N deficiency stress will be helpful for appropriate applica‑ tion of nitrogen fertilizer for tea farmers and elucidate a mechanistic basis for the reductions in carbon dioxide (CO2) assimilation. Results: To elucidate a mechanistic basis for the reductions in carbon dioxide (CO2) assimilation under nitrogen (N) deficiency tea leaves, changes in chlorophyll (Chl), carbohydrates, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxy‑ genase (Rubisco) and chlorophyll fluorescence transient were examined together with six N treatment (0, 50, 100, 300, 1200 or 6000 μM N). Root, stem and leaves dry weight (DW) increased as N supply increased from 0 to 300 μM, then remained unchanged. The reductions in CO2 assimilation of N-deficient leaves paralleled with high intercellular CO2 concentration.

  • Tropical Fruits, 2Nd Edition, Volume 1 R.E
    CROP PRODUCTION SCIENCE IN HORTICULTURE SERIES Series Editor: Jeff Atherton, Professor of Tropical Horticulture, University of the West Indies, Barbados This series examines economically important horticultural crops selected from the major production systems in temperate, subtropical and tropical climatic areas. Systems represented range from open fi eld and plantation sites to protected plastic and glass houses, growing rooms and laboratories. Emphasis is placed on the scientifi c principles underlying crop production practices rather than on providing empirical recipes for uncritical acceptance. Scientifi c understanding provides the key to both reasoned choice of practice and the solution of future problems. Students and staff at universities and colleges throughout the world involved in courses in horticulture, as well as in agriculture, plant science, food science and applied biology at degree, diploma or certifi cate level will welcome this series as a succinct and readable source of information. The books will also be invaluable to progressive growers, advisers and end-product users requiring an authoritative, but brief, scientifi c introduction to particular crops or systems. Keen gardeners wishing to understand the scientifi c basis of recommended practices will also fi nd the series very useful. The authors are all internationally renowned experts with extensive experience of their subjects. Each volume follows a common format, covering all aspects of production, from background physiology and breeding to propagation and planting, through husbandry and crop protection to harvesting, handling and storage. Selective references are included to direct the reader to further information on specifi c topics. Titles available: 1. Ornamental Bulbs, Corms and Tubers A.R.

Abstract Concepts are a key feature of academic research and international politics. Despite the fact that interpreting, classifying and communicating the world through concepts has far-reaching social and political consequences, their various roles and complex dynamics remain poorly understood in International Relations (IR). Instead of disregarding concepts, conflating them with other cognitive terms such as norms, or obsessing about their ability to scientifically capture reality, this dissertation builds on the emerging field of critical concept studies (CSS), which understands concepts as open and contestable interpretive devices that observers use to make sense of the world, often to steer political thought and action. In line with CSS, this dissertation refers to these political struggles as “conceptual politics”—the ways in which actors coin, use, promote, revisit and fight over concepts in anticipation of performative effects—and argues that it constitutes a key facet of politics.

It should also be noted that the females from this area appear to look much younger than their chronological age (with less wrinkles on the face and a lack of sagging in the breasts). From these studies other studies were conducted on different herbs from the same population region. There have been several studies in this region by numerous universities.
